Translations into Quechua and Aymara

This page gives some examples of translations of other documents from either Spanish or English into Quechua. These translations give an idea of the complexity and flexibility of Quechua. If you are interested in finding out more about my background as a translator, visit my Translation site (please be patient; that page is also still under construction! There will be an actual link here as soon as that page is ready).
